Encounters x335 - Phone Calls From the Other Side
6/11/202655 min
If your phone rang at 3 a.m. and the caller ID said “Payphone, Rhode Island,” would you answer? This week’s encounters episode dives into haunted phone calls, cursed voicemails, creepy glitches, and spirits who are just one bad connection away. Static-filled voices, phantom landlines, Ouija board fallout, and shadow figures all collide in a collection of listener stories guaranteed to make you think twice before answering an unknown number. Stories include: A listener skips a creepy voicemail segment from the podcast, then immediately receives a garbled call from a bizarre number filled with symbols. A family receives late night calls from a Rhode Island payphone shortly after their payphone loving grandfather passes away. A disconnected landline begins ringing inside an abandoned Kodak factory where workers already felt an overwhelming paranormal presence. A woman is horrified when her deceased abusive ex-boyfriend’s full name and decades-old phone number suddenly appear on her caller ID. Strange calls continue for years and culminate in a raspy voice singing “Happy Birthday” and using the listener’s name on her 21st birthday. Watch the video version here.
